The holidays can be a lot—especially if you’re juggling too many expectations, feeling the weight of others’ emotions, or just trying to keep it all together when everything feels like it’s falling apart. In this episode, I’m diving into how the holiday season can throw extra pressure on those of us who take on more than we should—whether that’s managing everyone else’s needs, pushing ourselves to meet impossible standards, or feeling disconnected and drained despite being surrounded by people.

A whole bunch of us were raised on the premise of an Amercian Dream, and it turns out we were all sold a lie. The harder we work, the less we own. As the average life expectancy reaches new heights, so too do health disaprities. No matter who we vote for, politicians have zero interest in doing the will of the people. And there's no justice to be found in the legal justice system. So now that we've woken up (some of us have been awake for a while now), what are we going to do about it?

4 years ago, Asher failed his final diet. More accurately, the final diet failed him. 3 years ago, he came out as transmasculine. Two years ago, he uprooted his entire life and moved to Scotland. This time last year, he realised he was neurodivergent. In may 2020, he was writing a weight loss blog. A lot has happened since then, so he figured it was high time he re-introduced himself.

The other day, Cara messaged Asher to say:
"I've been slowly pushing my doctor to forget that I'm fat and there as been some growth. At my last appointment she was scheduling me for an MRI and there is a mandatory weight question. She told me about it upfront, said she would not weigh me but that she needed a number to put in there. She asked me what I thought she should write, I gave her the answer, and that was that. It felt like a win. It felt like I had taught her something and that she valued the lesson."
So of COURSE Asher begged Cara to come on his podcast. Who wouldn't?! You can find Cara on Instagram or through her Linktree.Visit Asher's website and check out all his FREE RESOURCES.
